i lost myself on a cool damp night.
i gave myself in that misty light.
was hypnotised by a strange delight,
under a lilac tree.
i made wine from the lilac tree.
lost my heart in its recipe.
it made me see what i want to see,
and be what i want to be.
but i think more than i ought to think
i do things i never should do
i drink much more than i ought to drink
because it brings me back you...
lilac wine,
is sweet and heady.
like my love,
lilac wine,
i feel unsteady,
like my love.
listen to me...
i cannot see clearly.
isn’t that he coming to me
nearly here?
lilac wine,
is sweet and heady.
where’s my love?
lilac wine.
i feel unsteady,
where’s my love?
listen to me...
why is everything so hazy?
isn’t that he, or am i going crazy?
lilac wine, i feel i’m ready for my love...
feel i’m ready for my love.
